REMOVE CARTON

Move water heater to a location near where it will be installed. Carefully slide water heater out from the carton and remove all the contents.

MOUNT WATER HEATER ON THE WALL

The EVERHOT→ IGE series water heater must be installed outdoors. Refer to Table 1 clearances under overhangs, windows, doors, etc. Also avoid locations where there is heavy water runoff from roofs. Determine the proper height and location for the water heater to be installed. Consider the water and gas connections. Allow enough room for servicing the water heater and maintain the clearances from combustible materials previously stated. The water heater is supported on the wall by means of a top and bottom slotted angle bracket. For convenience, the center hole of the bracket is slotted so that a center screw may be first installed in the wall for hanging the water heater on the wall. Two more screws are then added on the ends of the bracket to secure the water heater. Wall anchors should be used for the bracket holes unless the bracket lines up with a stud. As an alternative, a suitable piece of plywood or 2x4 wooden support may be cut to span the wall studs and the brackets. Make sure the anchors are rated to support the 50 pound (23 kg) weight of the water heater.
